Lumbini, Nepal

Buddha was born in Lumbini, Nepal. We visited there in March 2014 and returned in April for a retreat at Panditerama. Here are some of the photographic highlights.

This statue of baby Buddha presides over the complex of temples and monuments that make up the international commemoration of the birthplace of Buddha, the Lumbini Trust Development. In addition to standing as a statue, baby Buddha appears in pictures all over Lumbini. (3 Mar 2014)Back to top
